[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] Governor Glenn Youngkin today declared a state of emergency to provide emergency hunger relief for Virginians in response to the Democrat Shutdown causing Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits to run out starting November 1, 2025. [/quote] https://www.governor.virginia.gov/newsroom/news-releases/2025/october/name-1066131-en.html I guess the National Guard will be deployed and elections cancelled?[/quote] “Democratic shutdown”? LOL! Which party is in power?[/quote] Are you really the f'ing stupid? You need 60 votes to open. Del are blocking.[/quote] Why can't Republican find 15 Senators willing to join Democrats to reopen the government? . [/quote] Democrat senators are the ones keeping it shut down. The republican House and republicans in the senate have all voted to end it. The democrats are the holdouts here. [/quote] Republicans own all branches of government. It is their duty to work - not close the House week after week- to negotiate and get a deal. Instead they are doing literally nothing and trumps agencies are violating the Hatch Act with the political messages about the closure. Youngkin playing politics by blaming Democrats is offensive and I can’t wait until that Trump sycophant is gone from VA government. [/quote] Newsom isn't even bothering to feed Californians. He is just blaming Trump as SNAP benefits run out in California. Newsom would rather see people starve. https://www.gov.ca.gov/2025/10/20/trump-shutdown-could-soon-halt-food-support-for-millions-in-california-calfresh-cards-face-possibility-of-no-new-funds-in-november/ [quote]Newsom today announced that President Trump’s federal government shutdown will likely delay food benefits for millions of Californians who rely on CalFresh cards to feed themselves and their families.
